plspls_pls_ stop calling each other fascists or astroturfers unless you have a thorough understanding of the uncommitted movement and what u.s. primaries are. there is so much blatant misunderstanding and misinfo going on it’s bad.
edit: if any loser dares call for an uncommitted vote in the general election? i will kick them in the balls (gender neutral) (in minecraft)
There's a thing where previously oppressed minorities get their rights, and then they start to forget that there are other oppressed minorities that still need their rights.
For example, Irish people were often oppressed a century ago in the US, but they're just more white guys. That why Bill O'Reilly could go on Fox News in the early 2000s and say "my Irish ancestors pulled themselves up by their bootstraps, why can't black people?"

Solidarity cannot be taken for granted.
